Chocolate contains caffeine and an endogenous cannabinoid, as well as a chemical thatmodulates serotonin production; but is it an aphrodisiac, as the Mayans and Aztecs believed?Suppose you conduct a study which measures sex drive in a group of 20 women, after eating 8ounces of chocolate. Given that you have available data from the Kinsey Institute (IndianaUniversity) about the general sex drive for women of the same demographic as in your study, youdecide to compare your group to this population estimate.If testing hypotheses about the effects of chocolate on sex drive, it would be most appropriate tocalculate a ...1)Paired sampled t2)Z-test3)Independent-samples t-test 4)One- sample t-test
Historically, the proportion of people who trade in their old car to a car dealer when purchasing a new car is 48%. Over the previous six months, in a sample of 115 new car buyers, 46 have traded in their old car. To determine (at the 10% level of significance) whether the proportion of new car buyers that trade in their old car has this is statistically significantly decreased, what can you conclude concerning the null hypothesis? A) reject the null hypothesis Or B) fail to reject the null hypothesis
6.6.4 To study the difference in drug therapy adherence among subjects with depression who received usual care and those who received care in a collaborative care model was the goal of a study conducted by Finley et al. (A-21). The collaborative care model emphasized the role of clinical pharmacists in providing drug therapy management and treatment follow-up. Of the 50 subjects receiving usual care, 24 adhered to the prescribed drug regimen, while 50 out of 75 subjects in the collaborative care model adhered to the drug regimen. Construct a 90 percent confidence interval for the difference in adherence proportions for the populations of subjects represented by these two samples.
The following data are from a research study comparing two treatment conditions. Do the data indicate a significant difference between treatments? Use a two-tailed test with α = .05. First, assume the data are from an independent-measures study using two separatesamples - and perform a complete HT, and write an APA summary, and find the CI for the difference between the means. Second, assume the data are from a repeated-measures study using the same sample ofn = 5 participants in both treatments - and perform a complete HT, and write an APA summary, and find the CI for the difference between the means. Explain why the 2-point mean difference is reliable for one test but not for the other. Control102I157Treatment1152189
A recent study examined the effects of carbon monoxide exposure on a group of construction workers. The following table presents the numbers of workers who reported various symptoms, along with the shift (morning, evening, or night) that they worked. Morning Shift Evening Shift Night Shift Influenza 19 12 17 Headache 15 33 6 Weakness 12 14 7 Shortness of Breath 6 10 7 Send data to Excel Test the hypothesis of independence. Use the =α0.10 level of significance and the P-value method with the TI-84 Plus calculator. What do you conclude? H0: The shift and reported symptoms are/are not independent. H1: The shift and reported symptoms are/are not independent. This hypothesis test is a left tailed/right tailed/two tailed test.
The technology underlying hip replacements has changed as these operations havebecome more popular (over 250,000 in the United States in 2008). Starting in 2003,highly durable ceramic hips were marketed. Unfortunately, for too many patients theincreased durability has been counterbalanced by an increased incidence ofsqueaking. The May 11, 2008, issue of the New York Times reported that in one studyof 143 individuals who received ceramic hips between 2003 and 2005, 10 of the hipsdeveloped squeaking.a. Calculate a lower confidence bound at the 95% confidence level for the trueproportion of such hips that develop squeaking.b. Interpret the 95% confidence level used in (a).
31% of all pygmy softshell tortoises have stripes on their shells. A herpetologist in Cititon collects a sample of 28 pygmy softshell tortoises and finds that 8 of them have stripes on their shells. Is there enough evidence to conclude, at a significance of alpha = 0.05, that the proportion of pygmy softshell tortoises in Cititon with stripes on their shells is less than 31%? What is the claim? What is the null hypothesis? What is the alternative hypothesis? What is the test statistic? What is/are the critical value(s)? Do we reject the null hypothesis? What conclusion do we draw? What is the P-value for the problem above?
1.Based on these sample data, is there a statistically significant relationship (at the .05 level) between whether one enters the hospital with lung cancer (vs. something else) and the number of cigarettes one smokes? What justifies this conclusion?
A sociologist wants to investigate the question, "Is there a relationship between texting during class and grade-point-average (GPA) among high school seniors in a large district?" Which study design is most appropriate? Before the semester starts, randomly select 40 seniors from each high school who do not text during class. Assign 20 to the texting treatment group (text three or more times during every class meeting) and 20 to the control group (no texting during class). At the end of the semester, obtain each student’s GPA from the appropriate admissions and records office. Compare the GPA of students who routinely text during class to the GPA of students who do not text during class. Before the semester starts, randomly select 40 seniors from each high school who do not text during class. Assign 20 to the texting treatment group (text three or more times during every class meeting) and 20 to the control group (no texting during class). At the end of the semester,…
2. Consider a study where students are measured on whether they had an internship during their time at WKU (Y/N) and whether they had a job at graduation (Y/N). If we wanted to test whether having an internship was associated with having a job at graduation (i.e., internship holders were more likely to have jobs), why would the chi-square test be inappropriate for this hypothesis? How should we analyze our data?
Recently, the Shine research clinic published a report stating that the regular application of a very popular sunscreen lotion NoHelios might cause some forms of skin cancer. The manufacturer of NoHelios issued an energetic counterstatement asserting that the Shine clinic's conclusions were statistically inconsistent. Wellbeing pharmacy chain has been selling NoHelios lotion for a long time. The market research department of Wellbeing wants to see what is currently happening with NoHelios lotion demand. The members of a random sample of customers were asked about their willingness to use NoHelios before and after the publication of Shine clinic's report. The answers were provided in form of a score from 0 to 10 (higher score means more willingness). Results for five customers are shown in the following table. The "before" score is matched to the "after" score, and the difference should be calculated. Suppose that it is known that such differences have approximately bell-shaped…
